Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take on Nenek Recipe is mixed, with significant inconsistencies reported.

While some customers praise the bebek goreng and bebek gulai ijo for being tender and free of gamey smell, comparing the fried duck favorably to ayam penyet, others have had very poor experiences.

The sambal is frequently highlighted as a strong point, with one reviewer specifically recommending it for company events after ordering 46 packets of ayam penyet.

However, there are serious concerns about food quality and safety.

Multiple reviews mention cold, stale, or overly salty food, with specific complaints about greenish egg yolks and dry chicken.

Delivery and pickup wait times can be excessive, with one rider reporting over an hour's wait.

The inconsistency in food temperature and freshness, particularly the cold rice and questionable egg, raises potential food safety issues that have led to official complaints.

We think Nenek Recipe is a risky choice; while the duck dishes and sambal might be good on a lucky day, the widespread reports of cold, unappetizing, and potentially unsafe food make it hard to recommend broadly.

Best avoided until quality control improves.

What customers say

Nenek Recipe receives mixed feedback, with some customers praising the tender and flavorful duck dishes like Bebek Goreng and Bebek Gulai Ijo, especially for company events.

However, a significant number of patrons report issues with food freshness, with chicken described as dry and hard, and rice being cold.

Saltiness is a recurring complaint for dishes like Nasi Lemak and Mee Rebus, and there are concerns about food safety due to greenish egg yolks and reports of illness.
